The United States is deploying military forces to the Middle East after Saturday's drone attacks on major oil sites in Saudi Arabia that the administration of President Donald Trump has blamed on Iran.

Thing I hate about SA is you cant bring your bible, gun or dog. UAE aint that bad.
I regret not going to Cyprus, but I had the dog.
I can disagree with him and continue to respect him.
Not very bright are you.
*** Not very bright are you. ***
Instead of just tossing insults at other posters akin to “you’re a fat weenie”, “your mother wears Army Boots”, I would like to see cogent arguments for differing opinions.
Sometimes, it is like a junior high mean girls convention on FR.
Their lazy ass princes would rather build solid gold cars than protect their oilfields. Mentality of children. Need to grow the hell up.
Jane Fonda, is that you?
They are “men and women”, not “boys and girls”.
Now that’s a can-do attitude...Eeyore...
Yadda yadda yadda. I care not one bit what dummies on either side of the political aisle think. You have no idea what forces are being sent and still you post BS as if it’s proven fact. I reject you analysis of the President’s decision in it’s entirety. Is that cogent enough?
Oops, my mistake arcadequarters post was not the post I meant to reply too. Please accept my apologies for being so mean. Although I have no idea why sockpuppet decided to intervene with his pitiful snowflake like post.
Sorry to offend. I'm pushing 70, so 18 year olds are children to me. The military can change them into adults. But in combat, they're still children and I don't want to see their lives wasted on another useless ground warfare. Pilots of bombers and attack aircraft are older, and more mature.
Being deployed is guys for PATRIOT MISSILE batteries:
Can those defend against small Iranian cruise missiles or tiny drones?
Yes.
But not for that long.
That’s putting aside the extremely important question of if we should act as servants for Saudi Arabia, esp after being attacked by them, or if we should be fighting EIGHT wars simultaneously.
Or if ANY country $23 trillion in debt should even think of fighting two of them at the same time, to say nothing of fighting EIGHT of them at the same time.
The USA now is Great Britain in 1946.
For some reason your photo is not displaying but might be displaying to you.
Perhaps it’s being called a whole lot.
That’s the candidate I supported in 2016.
“...Gen. Joseph F. Dunford Jr., chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, described the troop deployment as “modest” and “not thousands.””
Sounds like an advisory, temporary move.
I believe Trump when he says he is done fighting middle east wars.
Excellent post!
Very well said.
Please, no.
*** I reject you analysis of the President’s decision in it’s entirety. Is that cogent enough? ***
I didn’t post any analysis re: Trump’s decision on this thread. I posted the number of KSA crucifixions, and beheadings in 2019.
Have a nice weekend.
